Students will . . .
1. write proper objectives, according to one and only one style.
2. create a lesson plan in exactly the same format as the teacher.
3. align objectives with standards, because we teach like robots.
4. write down assessment techniques to be used, in case the student forgets how to see/hear.
5. disappoint the teacher, despite doing their best.
6. submit to the authority of the teacher's opinion.
7. question little, if ever, and only in support of the teacher.
94. never, ever step out of line.
P.S. I am a little annoyed at how my teacher makes us write objectives. In case you couldn't tell.
ReplyDeleteIf we don't set it up EXACTLY as above (and I still did it wrong) it's as if we won't be able to teach. Seriously, like writing something slightly different would really ruin my abilities.
This is kind of depressing. I can understand your frustration.
ReplyDeleteBut you are a good teacher, and you will overcome it.
She just thinks her way is the best. But look at it this way, as soon as you are done with your student teaching you can write objectives however you jolly well please!
ReplyDeleteThat thought is keeping me alive.
